| How To Cook: |
|
|
1. Place the soaked and drained cod in 4 cups of fresh water and bring to a simmer, covered. Cook for 15 minutes and drain. Cool and flake the fish.
|
2. Set aside. Heat the lard or oil in a large frying pan and saute the onion until very light brown. Add the salt cod and achiote oil.
|
3. Stir together for a moment over medium heat and then add the eggs. Cook, stirring now and then, until the eggs are done to your taste. Season with salt and pepper.

TIP:
|
|
Be sure to rinse the dried cod often as it soaks. Otherwise its taste will be too salty.
